2025 Triennial Board Elections

The Triennial Elections are being held this year. Becoming a Board member is a rewarding experience that offers a unique insight into the operations of our kura and the education system. It's a fantastic opportunity to contribute to your community and make a tangible difference. We encourage all interested parents to consider putting their name forward for the upcoming elections.

The School Board is an important part of our kura as they set the strategic direction for our school, consult with our school community,  ensure the funding is spent wisely, and ensure that we are giving effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi within our school community.  The Wellington East Girls’ College Board is made up of five elected parent representatives, the Principal, a staff representative elected by the staff, a student representative elected by the students, and co-opted representatives.

The current Board have made the decision to appoint Schooled Election Pilot as the Returning Officer for our election and for the election to be provided online.  They are the only election provider accredited by the Ministry of Education to provide online election services since online elections started in 2022.  

Nomination and voting forms will be sent to all eligible voters by email directly from Election Pilot.  If they don’t have an email address for you, nomination and voting papers will be sent by post so no one will miss out.

Nominations will be called for from 18 July, and must be received by 12noon Wednesday 6 August.

If you have any questions about the election process, please contact the Returning Officer directly on 0800 VOTENZ (0800 868 369) or election@electionpilot.nz.

We will continue to keep you updated through the various stages of the election process. Our election date is Wednesday 10 September.
